As we enter into a decade of commemoration in 2016, Labour wants to commence a national conversation about the future of our island and within it our many diverse communities.

Labour is fully committed to supporting the institutions and spirit of the Good Friday Agreement to ensure stability and peace in Northern Ireland. We also believe in fostering a mature dialogue between every community, north and south, on how we can best secure the long-term prosperity of our shared island. We do not believe the barriers of the past should stand in the way of considering a better future.
